It is now 8 years since you have passed. Not a day goes by that your name isn´t mentioned. Your legacy of being the matriarch of our family is still going strong.
Elena got married to Ernest in Vouliagmeni this summer...the very place you brought up your children and grandchildren. The entire family came including your great grandchildren Charlotte and Atticus. Elena is also expecting a little girl this June. I know you already know these things because you look after us.
We miss you, but know that you live within all of us and always will.

Mom,
I know you are looking down and smiling upon your new great grandchildren from Sophia and Margot, Atticus and Charlotte. They will be brought up at Elderfields the way you brought up your children and grandchildren.
It has been 7 years and not a day goes by that we don´t mention your name or think about you. That is what we are taught...to keep the memories of you alive. Your love, kindness, family values, and generosity as well as humor will be hopefully passed on and never be forgotten. Miss you.
Love,
Irene

She knew how to throw a party, good food, good booze, good music. Always had a smile on her face. She was a lady all the way. She loved and sang Thats Amore.

It has been 4 years and a huge void is still in our family. This update sits uncomfortably with me as I know you are in heaven, but it comforts me alone in just writing you.
I am in one of your homes now in Palm Beach. You and your bright spirit is all around me. This was and still is, the favorite playground of Dad and your children and grandchildren. Nonetheless it isn't the same without you here. Nicholas, Marguerite and I know that the future great grandchildren of yours will be coming too. We will try to do with them all that you did with us and our children.
Elderfields is under construction. Your spirit is also in every aspect of its design. The treasures that you painstakingly selected with decorators, on your travels and from your favorite antique stores are being strategically positioned in areas where you will be remembered.
Gone but never forgotten.
Love you more than all the tea in China,
Irene

To the entire Cyprus family, find peace in knowing she lived as a lady and left us as a lady. I will always remember her sense of humor, her dancing, her throwing the best parties ever, but most of all her goodness. May she rest in peace, Libby and mike

Mrs. Cyprus
You will forever be missed. Thank you for always welcoming me into your home from such a young age - - whenever I went to your house with my grandparents, I would jump with anticipation because I knew I would always have a most wonderful time with you. Your laugh was enough to always brighten my day. Thank you for being such an unforgettable part of my childhood during the many trips we took with my grandparents together. Even after they passed away, you always greeted me with open arms. You were the most gracious woman and my grandmother was so blessed to have you as her best friend. It is truly hard to imagine the world without you in it. Love always xxxxxx

Dear Yiayia,
I don't know how I am going to be able to handle my life without you physically in it. You're the biggest ray of sunshine and the most elegant amazing woman. I'm sure you're the bell of the ball up there in Heaven, and Heaven sure is lucky to have you. I love you so so so much Yiayia.
I miss you already.
